error: thread-local storage is unsupported for the current target

Using configure.thread_local_storage yes should tell MacPorts to pick a TLS-compatible compiler.

In 82f67c0d68f8d5abbc9918c51e80671b25c32301/macports-ports (master):

crossgdb PG: Pick a TLS-compatible compiler

See #65105

It appears that With the above commit I'm now getting this error from portindex:

Creating port index in /Users/blairzajac/Code/MacPorts/macports-ports.git
Failed to parse file cross/arm-none-eabi-gdb/Portfile: invalid command name "configure.thread_local_storage"
Failed to parse file cross/avr-gdb/Portfile: invalid command name "configure.thread_local_storage"

Did you mean compiler.thread_local_storage rather than configure.thread_local_storage ?

[judaew (Vadym-Valdis Yudaiev)]

Done in ​https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/commit/138508864890f3d23a684ce0d8daea36cd3af1ec

Replying to blair:

Did you mean compiler.thread_local_storage rather than configure.thread_local_storage ?

Indeed I did; sorry about that.

[judaew (Vadym-Valdis Yudaiev)]

Since the change was in PG (crossgdb), the builder didn't build the port after this error. May be need to bump revision?

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Increasing the revision would not be appropriate unless the preceding change changes what the port installs. (Consult the documentation about revision in the guide.) Any change to a portfile, even a whitespace change, will trigger a build if one is needed. Even more preferable would be to force a build using the buildbot web interface. I've forced a build of arm-none-eabi-gdb now: ​10.9, ​10.11. If other ports that use the portgroup need builds forced as well, we can do that too.

[judaew (Vadym-Valdis Yudaiev)]

Thank you, Ryan. The avr-gdb port also uses this portgroup. Please, help force a build of this port too.

​10.6 i386 (fail due to #65111), ​10.9 (success), ​10.11 (fail), ​12 arm64 (fail).
